  • Enacted
This bill amends the Homeland Security Act of 2002 to significantly improve engagement with grant recipients under the Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI) and the State Homeland Security Grant Program (SHSGP). It mandates that the Administrator of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) provide ongoing stakeholder outreach, engagement, education, technical assistance, and support throughout the entire grant lifecycle. A key provision requires conducting annual surveys to gather feedback from State, local, Tribal, and territorial stakeholders regarding the grant awarding process and the effectiveness of FEMA's outreach efforts. Furthermore, the bill requires FEMA to provide summaries of these annual surveys and other collected feedback, detailing how this input was incorporated into future grant notices of funding opportunities. To ensure accountability and evaluate the new requirements, the legislation directs the Comptroller General to submit a report within two years on the effectiveness of FEMA's enhanced outreach. Additionally, the FEMA Administrator must submit a report within three years detailing the actions taken to implement these new provisions, including the required surveys and summaries.
